Time Traveling: The Man and Wife Heads the House

Gu Xihe walked behind the counter and greeted Cui Jingshun and Sun Zheng with a smile.Sun Zheng and Cui Jingshun knew when Gu Xihe would come back, and they had already made preparations to welcome him. What was strange was that the boss had been back for several days and hadn't come to the teahouse.What's even more strange is that the boss didn't come, and Zhang Chi disappeared.To be precise, he only came when the story was told, and left in a hurry after the story was told.Even many guests will ask when the boss will come back and when there will be activities in the teahouse.

Sun Zheng couldn't help asking Cui Jingshun what Zhang Chi and the boss were doing.

Cui Jingshun stroked his beard and smiled deeply, "Little Bie is better than a newlywed! You, you will know when you get married."

Sun Zheng blushed and walked away awkwardly.

While greeting the guests, he kept an eye on Zhang Chi.He took off Gu Xihe's coat, took a cushion and put it on the chair, took tea and snacks and put them on the table in front of him, and told him to go in and rest when he was tired, and then reluctantly walked to the podium Tell the story later.

Zhang Chi's series of actions really caught Sun Zheng's eyes. He felt that the stickiness between the two became more serious.

Gu Xihe drank his tea slowly, watching Zhang Chi's high spirits, the smile on the corner of his mouth never faded.

Sun Zheng came over to pour tea for him, Gu Xihe asked in a low voice: "Sun Zheng, how is the business in the teahouse recently?"

"It's not bad. It's cold, and there are fewer people coming than in summer, but it's basically about [-]%."

"Is it still peaceful in the teahouse? Has anyone come to make trouble?"

"Of course not! Since Zhang Chi beat Si Tong to the ground last time, no one dared to come to our teahouse to make trouble. Moreover, regular customers now know that Zhang Chi has a good relationship with the future son-in-law of the county magistrate, and they all want to have a relationship with Zhang Chi has a good relationship! Where is someone making trouble?"

Gu Xihe nodded, Zhang Chi told him that the county magistrate intends to betroth his daughter to He Jiahao.The last time I saw him, he had a deep impression on him.Although He Jiahao is young, he has a clear goal and is full of drive. He is very happy for Zhang Chi to have such a friend.

"Where's Zhang Chi's mother? Have you been here?"

This was also what Gu Xihe was most worried about. He was not worried about Zhang Chi, but Chen Guihua.According to her temperament, she will definitely not let it go.

Sun Zheng hesitated for a moment, then said: "She came here, but she was scared away by Zhang Chi."

Gu Xihe worried, "Scared away? What do you mean?"

Sun Zheng thought of Chen Guihua's pale face with fright and the panic of fleeing, and couldn't help telling what happened that day.

Gu Xihe rubbed his chin and looked at Zhang Chi who was telling stories with a full voice, feeling incredible.He obviously looks like a gentleman, but he became a master of martial arts at the critical moment, and he doesn't know when he will be able to remember the past.Thinking of this, he felt a little uneasy. After Zhang Chi remembered the past, was it a good thing or a bad thing for them?

Sun Zheng asked: "Boss, why did Zhang Chi lose his memory? Does he not remember the past?

Gu Xihe's expression was gloomy, "He doesn't remember anything from the past. A few days ago, he said he remembered a little bit, but it was all fragments and not clear. Perhaps, he will remember it in the future?"

Sun Zheng looked at Zhang Chi, as if he still had something to ask, he opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't ask.

The comfortable days passed too quickly, and it was already the end of the year in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Chi spent several days reconciling accounts with Cui Jingshun, and the final result was beyond his expectation, but it was also reasonable.The profit of the teahouse is very considerable, not only can it pay off the 30 taels of silver given by Gu Zuocheng, but also have a good surplus.

When every household was preparing for the New Year, the teahouse in Zhangchi was also closed.After he gave Cui Jingshun a generous salary, he gave him a vacation.Zhang Chi looked at Sun Zheng again: "It's Chinese New Year, do you have a place to go?"

Sun Zheng bowed his head, and said after a while, "Zhang Chi, I'm leaving."

Zhang Chi was not surprised at all, nodded and said: "It's Chinese New Year, you've been out for so long, it's time to go home and have a look. How many people are there in your family? Do you want to bring some special products back? Clothes, snacks, everything It is your wish. I have already prepared the travel expenses for you. When I come back next year, I will advance part of your salary. You will buy a house in the town and settle down. It is time to get married. Do you want Tweety to wait? ?"

Sun Zheng smiled slightly, "Zhang Chi, I mean, I'm leaving."

Hearing Sun Zheng say it again solemnly, with a look of reluctance on his face, Zhang Chi suddenly understood what he meant.

"You mean, you won't come back after you leave?"

Sun Zheng nodded.

Zhang Chi was puzzled, "Why? Are you unhappy here? Where are you going?"

"Where are you going?" Sun Zheng's face showed confusion, "The ends of the earth, let's go!"

Zhang Chi stood up abruptly, and said loudly, "Since there is nowhere to go, why did you leave?"

"Don't go, stay here?" Sun Zheng looked at Zhang Chi, "What's the difference between here and other places?"

"Since there is no difference, why do you still have to leave? No, I am so confused by you! Of course it is different from other places here! Here you have friends, a job, a place to live, and a girl who loves you, why do you Are you leaving? Could it be that the work here is too tiring for you to do it? "

Sun Zheng quickly said: "Of course not. The work in the teahouse is not tiring at all."

Zhang Chi said again: "Why is that? Sun Zheng, don't tell me you don't know Tweety's thoughts. Tweety is a good girl, don't you have the heart to let her down?"

"I know. But, I never thought about what to do with her..."

Zhang Chi suddenly became angry, pointed at him and said: "You said you never thought about what to do with her? Then when she came to you, you should have made it clear to her! What are you? You don't take the initiative, you don't refuse, Irresponsible? Do you know that such behavior is scumbag? Are you still a man?"

Sun Zheng also knew that he was wrong, he clearly knew what Cui Er was thinking, he clearly knew that he should stay away from her, but seeing her laughing and chirping around him, he seemed to feel that he was not so lonely anymore.

"Zhang Chi, how can a man like me give her happiness? She is so good, she should have a better choice."

"Sun Zheng, I just want to ask you, have you ever thought about being with her?"

Sun Zheng was silent, of course he thought about it, but as he said, he is not good enough for her.

Zhang Chi slapped the table, "Whether you deserve it or not! Does it depend on the conditions for two people to be together? If this is the case, Xihe and I will not be together anymore. I can only find a cripple to live the rest of my life." .”

Unexpectedly, after Zhang Chi said this, Sun Zheng's face became even more ugly, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.

Zhang Chi could see that it was not without Tweety in Sun Zheng's heart.

He sighed, got up and patted Sun Zheng on the shoulder, "Sun Zheng, I'm not telling you to marry Tweety, but I just hope you can stay. I thought we were already friends, and we lived a stable life here and wore warm clothes. , It’s better to eat well than to wander outside. Think about it. Of course, if you insist on leaving, I won’t force you to stay.”

Zhang Chi got up to leave, but Sun Zheng said, "Zhang Chi, do you have no memory of what happened before?"

After hearing his words, Zhang Chi sat down again and looked at Sun Zheng in shock.

"You...know me before?"

Sun Zheng nodded, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "If, I said, your leg is lame because of me, would you still consider me a friend?"

"Because of you?" Zhang Chi immediately thought, "Are you my former comrade-in-arms?"

Sun Zheng nodded, "Yes. We were good brothers who fought side by side in the same camp. One time, you fought against the enemy. In order to save me, you injured your left leg and were left behind. I came back from the front line. I couldn't find you. Later I heard that you were discharged from the army because of a leg injury. I asked for a long time before I found out that your home is here. I just want to see you. I am relieved that you are doing well. You If you hate me, I have nothing to say. Anyway, when I leave, you won't see me again. For the past six months, thank you for taking in and taking care of me."

After Sun Zheng finished speaking, he got up and bowed to Zhang Chi, and was about to leave.

"stop!"

Sun Zheng stopped, but he didn't dare to turn around.

Zhang Chi got up, walked slowly in front of him, and looked down at him with unclear meaning in his eyes.

Sun Zheng's eyes were lowered, and he didn't dare to look into Zhang Chi's eyes.

After a while, Zhang Chi said, "You said, we used to be good brothers?"

His tone was calm, Sun Zheng couldn't hear his emotions, so he just nodded.

"I was hurt to save you?"

Sun Zheng nodded again.

"Then who rescued me back to the camp after I was injured?"

Sun Zheng said in a low voice: "It's me. I'm the one who carried you back."

In fact, it was very dangerous for him to be able to rescue Zhang Chi back to the camp, and the wound on his face was also caused at that time, but he didn't want to mention these.

Zhang Chi sighed, "Look, Sun Zheng, I saved you, and you saved me, so why should you feel guilty?"

"But your legs..."

"My leg is lame, but so what? Saving you is my own choice. At that time, I should only think about saving you, and I don't even care about my life. How can I care about a leg? You It was also very difficult when you carried me back to the camp, right? Why didn’t you leave me alone? You also thought so in your heart, right? For the sake of the brothers, you don’t have to die!”

Sun Zheng raised his head suddenly, his eyes were already red.

Zhang Chi wanted to sigh again, he patted Sun Zheng's shoulder, "You! You just think too much. Who can think so much on the front line of life and death on the battlefield? You feel guilty for my leg, so many lost Comrades, who should I ask for my life?"

Sun Zheng stared blankly at Zhang Chi in front of him, thinking back to the Zhang Chi he knew before, it was really different.At that time, Zhang Chi was also like himself, not good at words, but kind-hearted. They were similar to each other, so they became brothers.But the current Zhang Chi is sincere and fluent in speech, and he is speechless after a few words, but he is still the kind-hearted Zhang Chi.

Seeing that he did not speak, Zhang Chi continued: "Since you said that we are brothers, how can you leave? My teahouse still needs your help! You are gone, where can I find someone? You are not allowed to leave !"

"You really don't hate me?"

"Of course. You've known me for so long, but I, Zhang Chi, am a hypocrite?"

Sun Zheng looked at Zhang Chi for a long time, and finally smiled, "Okay, I'm not leaving!"

"Great!" Zhang Chi also laughed sincerely, "Sun Zheng, you can treat this place as your home from now on."

After comforting Sun Zheng, Zhang Chi can finally go home with peace of mind.

In the past few days, the weather has been extremely cold. Gu Xihe caught a little cold and had a fever for two days, but he just got better today.

As soon as Zhang Chi entered the door, he saw him sweeping the floor with a broom, and hurriedly stepped forward to snatch his broom, and said angrily, "Xihe, didn't I tell you to take a good rest? Why are you so disobedient?"

Gu Xihe smiled guiltyly, "I'm already healed, you don't have to be so nervous."

Zhang Chi couldn't help but hugged him and walked into the house, "It doesn't matter if it's done, you still need to rest more, I can do these jobs."

After finishing speaking, he yelled into the room, "Xiao An, come out and sweep the yard!"

Xiao An ran out and saw his father nervously touching his father's head and hands, and wanted to take off his cloak and put it on for his father. . .He couldn't help being depressed, his father and father only had daddy in their eyes, and they didn't value him more and more.How old was he, and he let himself work?Then he sighed again, forget it, I'd better just sweep the floor outside honestly, I don't want to see them get bored.

Zhang Chi embraced Gu Xihe and went back to the house, poured him hot water to drink, and stroked his head again. It was true that he didn't have a fever, so he felt relieved.

Gu Xihe said helplessly, "I'm really fine."

"Well, you are weak, so don't worry about it in the future. If there is something to tell, I will do it."

Gu Xihe rolled his eyes at him, "Where am I so weak? It's not paper."

This look made Zhang Chi's heart burn straight up, he hugged him with a smile, and licked his ear, "I know you're not paper, I'm just nervous about you."

In a word, Gu Xihe softened his body.

He pushed Zhang Chi, "Don't make trouble. Let's talk."

Zhang Chi smiled and hugged him tightly, "It can be said that way."

Gu Xihe knew that Zhang Chi was serious outside, and he was always clumsy in front of him, unable to push people away, so he could only follow him.

"Is the account of the teahouse settled? Is there any surplus?"

"you guess?"

Gu Xihe couldn't help but bend Zhang Chi with his elbow, "Quickly say it!"

Zhang Chi didn't let go, but hugged him even tighter.

"The business of the teahouse is good. Not only can we repay the debt borrowed from my father, but after paying Uncle Cui and Sun Zheng's salaries, there is still a surplus. He Jiahao also came over today and said that the books sold well. Half of the profit was sent over. Xihe, the teahouse will be closed from tomorrow, so I can stay with you at home."

"Brother Chi, it's all thanks to you."

Zhang Chi's tone was smug, but he said: "What's yours, mine, we are all one family."

"Ah."

"By the way, let me tell you, Sun Zheng is actually my good brother before."

Zhang Chi repeated Sun Zheng's words, and Gu Xihe couldn't help sighing.

"I really didn't expect it! Fortunately, we kept him, otherwise he would be so sad!"

"Yes." Zhang Chi bowed his head and kissed Gu Xihe's side face, "You are the wise one who kept him, and didn't let him leave sadly and wander the world."
